    I used windows media player to rip it

    Hey dude, just a heads up but Windows Media Player doesn't encode any higher than 192kbps. You can certainly set it to rip at 320 or 256 or any other normal MP3 bitrate, but upon spectral analysis it shows as 192kbps and no better, no matter how high you set the MP3 settings to.

    I've since moved on to MusicBee. It's the best player i've ever used.

    I meant it in a literal sense. I prefer the crisp, modern production, especially when "When Broken is Easily Fixed" aged like it was recorded through a can. The riffs are less muddy and more articulated on the redux and Shane improved so much over the years as a vocalist.

     

    TLDR; old albums bad production 

    I still disagree. Sounds bad on vinyl sure because victory couldn't press anything with a quality mastering. But the CD/lossless? Sounds beautiful. The recording quality of the early to mid 2000's is the best in my opinion. Everyone still used real equipment instead of digitally modulated amps, sample replacement for drums, and an overly abundant use of quantization and auto-tune on the vocals. Even When Broken 15 was autotuned in post. The raw recordings of the early material are the clear winners.

    Check out their Redux album they released last year. They rerecorded 2 songs from each of the old albums with their current sound and they all sound fantastic.

    I would have to disagree with them sounding fantastic. I didn't like the redux very much at all. Same with Senses Fail's new re-recorded EP.

    how


    Because that's what I feel the clean sections sound like. Standard fare clean singing for the genre, similar to that of Rise Records' roster of Post-Hardcore bands with higher pitched male voices. It's just my opinion man, don't get bent out of shape. I don't care if other people like it, good for them if they do, it doesn't affect me at all.


  5. I really just cannot get into the new VoM. I try with every new song and album they put out, but they just sound like every other djent/Rise-core band out there anymore. There are a few fleeting moments of dirty riffage in their newer material, but i dunno man it just doesn't do it for me. Nothing beats the straight riff fest that Mowgli is.

  6. According to JJ Palochek, old vocalist of the band, that pedo guitarist is the dude operating all social media accounts, and is for all intents and purposes still in the band. He in fact, IS the band. Just because a few statements are made does not make them truthful. JJ has nothing to gain from what he is saying as truth.

    I will not nor will ever support a pedophile, and those of you that want to plead ignorance? Well, you're just as bad for trying to justify your support of him. Go ahead and string me up, i'm just being honest, this is totally fucked.
